That Football Show 3/6: How the Chiefs' Trent McDuffie Trade Sets Up the Rest of Their Offseason

On this episode of That Football Show, Matt Verderame and Tucker Franklin break down the Kansas City Chiefs trading All-Pro cornerback Trent McDuffie to the Los Angeles Rams.

Is Brett Veach playing 4D chess or taking a massive gamble? They dive deep into the trade compensation, including a 2026 first-round pick and a haul of mid-round assets heading to KC. We discuss the staggering financial implications—saving nearly $90 million in guaranteed cash—and how this "retooling" mirrors the legendary Tyreek Hill trade.

In this episode:

The McDuffie Blockbuster: Why the Chiefs moved on from their star corner and what the Los Angeles Rams are getting for north of $30M per year.

Draft Capital Overload: With three picks now in the top 40, how will the Chiefs navigate the 2026 NFL Draft to build another Super Bowl contender?

The Buffalo Bills’ "White Whale": They react to the Bills trading a second-round pick for D.J. Moore. Is it a masterstroke for Josh Allen or a massive overpay by Brandon Beane?

Brett Veach’s Aggression: Why patience and Veach don’t mix, and what’s next for the Chiefs in NFL Free Agency.
